At the ⛄2023 F1 Belg♔ian Grand Prix Verstappen complained: "We should have just pushed two laps in a row like I said.”

T🌠o which, Lambiase responde👍d: “You are through Max.” 

The Dutchman snapped back: “Yeah I don’t🥂 give a f*** if we’re P10.ꦇ It’s just shit execution.”

Lambiase sassily retorted: “OK, and then when the track was two seconds quicker on t🥂he final lap and you had no energy left, how would that have gone down?

“But you tell me what you want to do in Q3 and we’ll do🤪 it. Sets, fuꦕel, run plan.” 

After going fastest in qualifying, Verstappen sꩵaid: "Sorry, GP."
